Google, Facebook, etc., are not being ignored. They are regulated by the FTC when it comes to consumer privacy.
ISPs used to also be subject to the same rules, but when the FCC changed the classification of ISPs from information services to common carriers in order to restore the net neutrality rules that had been struck down by the courts that took them out from under FTC regulation.
